A partial eclipse of the Moon occurred on 17 August, 0933 BC UT Old Style, with maximum eclipse at 11:56 UT. A tiny bite out of the Moon may have been visible at maximum, though just 3% of the Moon was shadowed in a partial eclipse which lasted for 36 minutes and 36 seconds. A shading across the moon from the Earth's penumbral shadow should have been visible at maximum eclipse.

The penumbral eclipse lasted for 4 hours and 1 minute. The partial eclipse lasted for 36 minutes and 36 seconds. Maximum eclipse was at 11:56:23 UT.
